Pagina 67 - To cheer the shivering native's dull abode. And oft, beneath the odorous shade Of Chili's boundless forests laid, She deigns to hear the savage youth repeat, In loose numbers wildly sweet, Their feather-cinctured chiefs, and dusky loves. Her track, where'er the goddess roves, Glory pursue, and generous Shame, The unconquerable Mind, and freedom's holy flame.

If this fail, The pillared firmament is rottenness, And earth's base built on stubble.
Pagina 194 - Lord shall be unto thee an everlasting light and thy God thy glory. Thy sun shall no more go down ; neither shall thy moon withd'raw itself: for the Lord shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.
Pagina 185 - If there be one thing on earth which is truly admirable, it is to see God's wisdom blessing an inferiority of natural powers, where they have been honestly, truly, and zealously cultivated.
Pagina 41 - Learn to make a right use of your eyes : the commonest things are worth looking at — even stones and weeds, and the most familiar animals.
